Well...sorta. Hit the video above to see what would happen if we left Mega Man in charge of preparing the turkey for Thanksgiving.

The College of New Jersey knows what's up: they actually allowed artists to create a collection of videogame-based chalk mural's, including the Mega Man that you see above. It's not a brick wall made to look like Mega Man, but it's still pretty cool.

Dunno about you, but as a Mega Fan, I'm constantly jealous of all the killer Blue Bomber goods produced in Japan that are near-impossible to find in North America. That's why I'm very happy to bring you a preview of some Mega Merch currently in production by new Capcom licensee FAB Starpoint. FAB Starpoint are in the process of signing distribution deals with retailers across the continent (hopefully including our own Capcom eStore), with an eye towards the products reaching your hot little hands in the beginning of the year. As a bonus, the folks from FAB Starpoint will also be checking the comments on this blog post to see which items you liked. Also, if you've got any clever ideas for Capcom-themed stationary/baggage items you'd like to see made, toss 'em out in the comments.

Get ready to turn down the lights, light some candles, and put on some John Legend (or High School Musical if that floats your boat) on your stereo.

Gamepro's Blake Snow and Dave Rudden have written up an interesting piece on the appeal of retro gaming and it features Mega Man 9 and some choice quotes from our very own Kramez.

The charm of retro-styled games is so strong, in fact, that developers such as Capcom have begun releasing new games using retro technology. "The past five years have taught us that you don't necessarily need cutting edge graphics to make a great new game," says Chris Kramer, alluding to the rise in retro, not to mention the popularity of the graphically-challenged Wii.

To put their money where their mouth is, Capcom released Mega Man 9, the first sequel in the main series since 1996, utilizing a style very reminiscent of the original NES installments. Kramer stated "Since the success of Mega Man 9, we've already begun considering what other classic Capcom titles should live again."

We briefly touched on this subject in our previous ReBirth post, so be sure to let your voice be heard in the comments over there!
